9 / 12 page ly proportional to the value of CAV. Waveforms with high crest factors, such as a pulse train with low duty cycle, should have an average time constant chosen to be at least ten times the signal period. Using a large value of CAV to remove the output ripple increases the settling time for a step change in the input signal level. Figure 3 shows the relationship between CAV and settling time, where 115ms settling equals 1µF of CAV. The settling time, or time for the RMS converter to settle to within a given percent of the change in RMS level, is set by the averaging time constant, which varies approximately 2:1 between increasing and decreasing input signals. For example, increasing input signals require 2.3 time constants to settle to within 1%, and 4.6 time constants for decreasing signals levels. In addition, the settling time also varies with input signal levels, increasing as the input signal is reduced, and decreasing as the input is increased as shown in Figures 6a and 6b. Using Post Filters A post filter allows a smaller value of CAV, and reduces ripple and improves the overall settling time. The value of CAV should be just large enough to give the maxi- mum DC error at the lowest frequency of interest. The post filter is used to remove excess output ripple. Figures 7, 8, and 9 give recommended filter connec- tions and values for both the MX536A and MX636. Table 1 lists the number of time constants required for the RMS section to settle to within different percentages of the final value for a step change in the input signal. Decibel Output (dB) The dB output of the MX536A/MX636 originates in the squarer/divider section and works well over a 60dB range. The connection for dB measurements is shown in Figure 10. The dB output has a temperature drift of 0.03dB/°C, and in some applications may need to be compensated. Figure 10 shows a compensation scheme. The amplifier can be used to scale the output for a particular application. The values used in Figure 10 give an output of +100mV/dB.
